A master story-teller, Dr. Jose A. Cardenas, offers us an insider's view of the 28-year history of school finance in Texas. Dr. Cardenas is the founder & director emeritus of IDRA & is the only person who has been actively involved in the entire school finance reform effort since the early days of the RODRIGUEZ VS.

Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Leading Schools Financially: A practical anthology to school finance is an anthology about the important and timely issue of money and schools. Virtually everything a school touches is connected to school finance. If the reader is involved in schools, this is a vital informational and resource book. Even those not directly connected with schools have a huge involvement through taxes and the education of our future generation. School finance is not a spectator sport. It requires participatory governance with the involvement of all citizens. Leading Schools Financially informs the reader from the perspective of three school finance practitioners about organizations, budgets, governance, personnel, human relations, facilities, culture, ethical leadership, labor relations, tools of the trade and equity. Don't sit on the sideline. Get involved and learn more about an important component of our nation, state and community that not only educate our children but also consumes approximately 50% of state and local budgets.

Equity and Adequacy in Education Finance
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309173957
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Spending on K-12 education across the United States and across local school districts has long been characterized by great disparitiesâ€"disparities that reflect differences in property wealth and tax rates. For more than a quarter-century, reformers have attempted to reduce these differences through court challenges and legislative action. As part of a broad study of education finance, the committee commissioned eight papers examining the history and consequences of school finance reform undertaken in the name of equity and adequacy. This thought-provoking, timely collection of papers explores such topics as: What do the terms "equity" and "adequacy" in school finance really mean? How are these terms relevant to the politics and litigation of school finance reform? What is the impact of court-ordered school finance reform on spending disparities? How do school districts use money from finance reform? What policy options are available to states facing new challenges from court decisions mandating adequacy in school finance? When measuring adequacy, how do you consider differences in student needs and regional costs?
